I used to build things with HTML, CSS, JavaScript and PHP (2002 - 2023).

Now I'm spending more time creating boardgames, and hoping to sell some.

I also like using saws, chisels, and hammers.

Is there a consensus among #AI experts about whether #LLM models can reliably summarize specific text without introducing weird extraneous information?

My assumption has been that the models can't really do this, and I can't imagine a way that they could reliably avoid omitting important details or even add information, but I'm not sure I've seen much discussion of this aspect of what they can and can't do.

(boosts welcome)

Edited to clarify second paragraph.

  1. Ask an LLM for a summary
  2. Ask a different LLM if there is anything extraneous between the original and the summary

I was looking at this Sass (SCSS) compiler, written in #PHP, and I noticed something very odd.

Under “requires (dev)," it requires two packages, sass/sass-spec and thoughtbot/bourbon, both of which appear to be empty packages, containing only a composer.json file, which has no dependencies.

What’s the purpose of these packages? They otherwise appear suspicious, to me, but I can’t see that they're doing anything nefarious right now—they just appear pointless.

It looks like some kind of namespace hijack. The packages look like they were added to the project several years ago, but this guy has published new empty ones more recently. He's got a bunch of other repositories doing the same. Not sure what his endgame is, though.
